El chilito bakersfield

Shrimp taste a little simple,
I ordered molcajete d mariscos ($36.00).
For the price I think could have more seafood.

Michelada taste ok, but price is super high ($17.00) only came with 5 shrimps and cucumber.

Service was great! But prices are super high compared with other seafood restaurants I've been.

I know seafood is expensive in mexican restaurants but portions are more generous and taste better!

Absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, my experience at El Chilito was exceptional. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff were friendly and attentive, and every dish was tasting amazing. I especially loved the Sope sampler perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. You can really tell that the cooks take pride in their work and use top-quality ingredients. The drinks were also great and of course the micheladas are top tier as well.
Whether you’re coming for a casual meal or a special occasion El Chilito delivers every time. I can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu. Highly recommended!

Our dining experience was excellent from start to finish. The food arrived promptly and tasted amazing — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Special shoutout to Andres, our waiter, who delivered exceptional service. He was respectful, attentive, and made sure every detail was just right. We’ll definitely be returning, and when we do, we’ll be asking for Andres again!

The food is over priced and small portions. For a Mexican restaurant they also charge for chips and salsa.

The place is cute they have a good design. The cocktail drinks we ordered did not taste what was described. Services was not the best. The server seemed like she was annoyed we were there and we showed up at about 9:20. She couldnt split our check she couldnt switch a sinple drink request of coffee and every time we asked for a small item it seemed like we were pulling teeth.

first time going there took my dad for his bday looks nice n clean food was deliciouse went for bfast my parents loved what they got huevos rancheros my son got oreo pancakes and I got chorizo with eggs everything on my plate was deliciouse good flavor

I always come to this place and never have I ever experienced the service I had today. This waitress was upset I don't know why. Her customer skills suck and honestly this lady should not even work there. She got mad cause she left 2 napkins on my table and I asked for more, like who counts the napkins? I told her I would pay for extra napkins. I also asked to do a to go order, which she never told the cooks at all. Then I asked for a manager and she said there was no manager, even though there was. I spoke with him, very kind young man. This lady proceeded to attack me verbally and had to be pushed away by the manager. I did call her names because I could no longer bare the service she was giving. I know you guys can do better. And I am not the only one with bad service from this waitress. I did not catch her name but she should not be a waitress. She proceeded to tell me I was no longer welcomed there. She was the one acting crazy and it sad because the last time I was there I spent about $300 on drinks and some appetizers. El Chilito, please do better. Que asco de servico y la mesera gritando como loca mientras yo hablaba con el manager.

I took a decent-sized group to surprise my nephew for his birthday.

The hostess left my group hanging more than 5 times waiting for her to return with our order. Understandably, the restaurant started getting full. I don't believe she speaks or understands English which made communicating very difficult. Also, it could be that the music was too loud to hear us.

The food was decent, nothing to brag about.

My party was left wanting better service.

The birthday attention was great and that's why I left a sizable tip.
